P. Hildreth. At the threat of his life and all those with him, 10 or 12 in number, he succeeded in ﬁnding the saline water and boiled some of it down on the spot in their camp kettle, making about a tablespoonful of salt. While here he narrowly escaped death from the riﬂe of an Indian who discovered them, unobserved by the party. After peace was concluded, this warrior related the circumstance of his raising his riﬂe twice to ﬁre at a tall man who had a tin cup strung to his girdle on his loins and who was known to be Mr. Green. As he might miss his object, being a long shot, and be killed himself, he desisted and hurried back to the Indian village below the present town of Chillicothe for aid. A party of 20 warriors turned out in pursuit and came on to the bank of the Ohio at Leading Creek a few minutes after the whites had left it with their boat and were in the middle of the river. They were seen by the men in the boat, who felt how narrowly and providentially they had escaped. The ﬁrst settlers in Meigs County got their salt from these Scioto Salt Works. S. P. Hildreth remembers hearing his father tell of taking a horse and pack saddle and going to the “Scioto Licks,” as they were then called, and working a week for a sack of salt. His business was drawing salt water by means of a hand pole afﬁxed to a sweep above. After receiving his wages, put his salt on the pack saddle and made his way home. Those salt works were under the superintendency of a state ofﬁcer, and by a law passed Jan. 24, 1804, renters had to pay a tax of 4 cents per gallon on the capacity of the kettle used in making salt, provided always that no person or company shall under any pretense whatever be permitted to use at any time a greater number of kettles or vessels than will contain 4,000 gallons, nor a less number in any one furnace than 600 gallons. After the salt works on the Kanawha were started the people here See HISTORY | 2 FOR THE RECORD Arrest reported Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood reports on April 16, deputies with the Meigs County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce arrested Perry A. Smith, age 57, of Racine, for Aggravated Menacing, Discharging a Firearm over a Public Road or Highway and Using a Weapon while Intoxicated, after a neighbor’s report that Smith had allegedly been in front of their residence in his vehicle, reportedly yelling threats to them and squealing his vehicle tires. Smith then allegedly returned to his residence and began ﬁring a weapon. The neighbors reported it seemed to them that he was ﬁring toward their residence, according to a press release from the sheriff’s ofﬁce. Smith is currently being housed in the Middleport Jail pending his court appearance.

For ﬁve years now, an event revolving around careers on the river has been held in Mason County for high school students from various area career centers. Recently, the “Who Works The Rivers” event returned to Point Pleasant, this event is pulled off via a cooperative effort between RiverWorks Discovery, the Point Pleasant River Museum and Learning Center, and several local river industry employers. RiverWorks Discovery is a national outreach education effort of the National River Center and Hall of Fame located at the National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium. The event serves as not only an educational tool but also as a “job fair,” allowing both employers and young people to connect speciﬁcally with career opportunities related to the local maritime industry. The program began in 2011 in Pittsburgh, Pa. and has since reached 17 cities in the country. To begin the days’ event, approximately 141 seniors from Buckeye Hills Career Center in Gallia County, Mason County Career Center, and Cabell County Career Technology Center in Cabell County gathered together in the American Legion Post #23 building for a career fair, listening to presentations from AEP River Photos by Erin Perkins | OVP Students learning about life as a towboater during a towboat tour.

ATHENS — OhioHealth announced this week the plans to move forward with the construction of a new 30,000 square foot, two-story medical ofﬁce building on the O’Bleness Hospital campus. The 11.3 million dollar project is expected to break ground in early fall of 2019 on the land situated between the hospital at 55 Hospital Drive and the OhioHealth Urgent Care Athens building at 265 West Union Street in Athens. The building is expected to be completed in late fall of 2020. The new facility will become the home of current Athens-based OhioHealth Physician Group Heritage College primary care practices, including those currently locat- ed at the Castrop Health Center, in Parks Hall and on Columbus Road and West Union Street in Athens. The facility will also serve as the home of an expanded Family Practice Residency and feature 5,000 square feet of additional space reserved to accommodate future growth. OhioHealth Physician Group Heritage College specialty practices will remain in the Castrop Health Center, allowing both patients and providers easy access to the hospital and its services. “Expanding our hospital campus allows us to simplify care for our communities and serve as a healthcare hub for the region,” said O’Bleness Hospital president Mark Seckinger. “The expanded campus will help our patients navigate through primary and specialty ser- vices and beneﬁt from the convenience of having lab, imaging and pharmacy services located within walking distance of their physician ofﬁces. Our providers and associates will beneﬁt from the ease of care coordination afforded by proximity to one another.” The new medical ofﬁce building is the latest in a series of recent investments OhioHealth has made to improve healthcare in the community.

Young men, on coming of age, went to Kanawha to chop wood or tend kettles when they wished to obtain a little money. It was hardly expected to get money at any other place, and salt seemed to be the medium by which trade was conducted. Keelboats were used as a means of transportation, and shipments were made by them of salt to Marietta, Pittsburgh and the lower Ohio. In order to give some knowledge of the origin and progress of the Kanawha salt business, we attach a letter which appeared in the Niles Register, Baltimore, Md., in April, 1815, and was copied from the Meigs County Telegraph, April, 1884.

Friday, April 19 Kanawha Salt Works At the ﬁrst settlement of this place there was a great “buffalo lick,” as it was called, was discovered where some weak salt water oozed out of the bank of the river. After some time the inhabitants sunk hollow gums into the sand and gravel at that place, into which the water collected, but it was so weak that, although sufﬁcient quantities might be collected, not more than two to four bushels were made in a day. After the property came into the possession of my brother, Joseph Ruffner, and myself (by divisee), we were desirous to see the effect of sinking large sycamore gums as low down as we could force them. We found great difﬁculty in this on account of the water coming in so rapidly. When we got down about eighteen feet below the surface of the river we discovered that our gums lodged on a solid, smooth freestone rock, and the water was Saturday, April 20 but little improved as we descended. We then bored a hole in the rock about 2 inches in diameter, the size generally used subsequently for that purpose. After penetrating the rock eighteen or twenty feet, we struck a vein of water saltier than had been attained in this place before. Our neighbors followed our example and succeeded in obtaining good salt water in the distance of 2 miles below and four miles above us on the river. They all have to sink the gums about eighteen feet to the rock, into which they bore a hole from 100 to 200 feet deep. The rock is never perforated, though the water seeps into the holes in soft or porous places. The cost of boring was from $3 to $4 a foot. The ﬁrst water that is struck in the augur hole is fresh, or an inferior quality of salt water, which is excluded by means of copper or tin tubes put down into the augur hole and secured so that none of the water that comes in above the lower end of the tube can discharge itself into the gum, which has a bottom put into it immediately upon the rock, and is secured in such a manner that no water can get into the tube except that which comes up through the tube from below. The water thus gathered in the gum rises about as high as the surface of the river at high water mark, and it requires from seventy to 100 gallons of it to make a bushel of salt. Each well produced on an average a sufﬁcient quantity of water to make 300 bushels of salt per day. There are now established and in operation ﬁfty-two furnaces, and more are being erected, containing from forty to sixty kettles of thirty ﬁve gallons each, which make from 2500 to 3000 bushels of salt per day. The quantity may be increased as the demand shall justify.

In 1820 several of the neighbors brought in their kettles and set them on a kind of furnace and made of that water one bushel of salt. After which a company was formed consisting of Benjamin Stout, Caleb Gardner, Thomas Shepherd and Michael Aleshire, who bored a well and erected a furnace and commenced making salt in 1822, when Benjamin Stout bought out the other parties. In 1822 Abijah Hubbell and his son, Jabez Hubbell, and Barsley Hubbell bored a salt well above the Stout well and a furnace set for making salt in 1824. Ruel Braley manufactured salt at his works, ﬁve miles above on Leading Creek, in 1830. The Bradford and Stedman’s furnace was located about ﬁve miles below the Stout well in 1830 or 1831. Still further down the creek Theophilus Jacobs operated a furnace for a few years with a great deal of energy. Near the mouth of Thomas Fork Herriman Plummer bored a well and made salt in 1831. Two other salt wells had been previously attempted in Rutland Township, but failed to obtain salt water. One was bored by Joseph Giles, Sr., and the other one was by Samuel Church in 1822, which resulted in the discovery of a heavy lubricating oil, the true value of which was not understood and very little attention was paid to it. After the Rutland furnaces began to make 200 bushels of salt per week the prices came down to 50 cents a bushel. After salt was made in large quantities along the Ohio River the works on the creek became unproﬁtable, and the manufacture of salt was discontinued.

Alternatives to candy might be a garden basket – how about a plastic watering can or a bucket with a pair of gardening gloves and a small trowel? Add some colorful seed packets of vegetables that grow fast or a packet of sunflowers so your little one can watch them grow. Charlene Little ones like to sleep over at Thornhill their grandparents so how about Contributing a sturdy overnight bag with a columnist pair of slippers and new pajamas? Add a plain pillowcase and fabric markers so the grandchild and granny can have fun decorating it. If candy is off-limits it doesn’t mean all food has to be. Children love snacks of goldfish, chewy granola bars, and fresh fruit. For the little artist in the family, pick up an inexpensive plastic bucket and add to it a sketchbook, scissors, markers and stickers. Most boys like sports equipment. For Little Leaguers, try new batting gloves, baseball hat with the logo of a favorite team, sunglasses or a book about a legendary player. Future hoops stars might like a pump and needle to keep basketballs firm, a team jersey and matching shorts, and a sweatband. For a gymnast, that might mean a new leotard, shorts, or warm-up gear, all nestled in a handy mini-laundry basket. Throw in some new grips, chalk, or wrist guards. Gymnasts also like gymnastics-themed T-shirts and hair ties. One of the biggest hits among pre-teens is a lip gloss, candle, or lotion in almost any flavor or fragrance under the sun. The Jelly Belly Company got in on the act with a host of products that smell like jelly beans but don’t cause cavities. Kids who enjoy going to the pool or beach would like a new towel, goggles or a pair of water shoes. The pool dive rings, splash balls, squidivers are fun for all kids (big or small). Some outdoor items like chalk, bubbles, sprinklers or bouncy balls are a hit for any age. We would hope that many of our children would say that Easter is about Jesus and His death on the cross for our sins. After all, this is the true meaning of Easter. Sharing with our children the real meaning of Easter, that Jesus died for their sins and loves them very much, is a hard thing to focus on when we are surrounded by the Easter bunny, chocolate, eggs, and more. Enjoy the time with your family – make it fun and have a Happy Easter.

What makes a columnist? Lisa Smith Molinari (a past president of NSNC) answered this question. “In today’s vast alternative media landscape, there have never been more forms of the art of column writing. Arguably, anyone who writes short-form serial essays, regardless of the medium, is a columnist. Column content varies from opinion to political analysis to sports to critiques to advice to Newspaper Association of America (NAA). www. newsmediaalliance.org. Who do writers write? “Over the years, theory upon theory has put been forth regarding the rationale for writers doing what they do. At its most basic level, some have argued, writing is about someone sharing something with someone else, making connection a key component of the pursuit. The possibility that a book or perhaps just a single sentence or phrase can be deeply moving or at least interesting and informative to a reader is a prime motivation for writers to keep on writing. Through their work, writers have the potential of having a bond with far more people than they can in real life, a perspective that recasts writing from its accepted view as a solitary and lonely exercise,” according to a 2018 article in Psychology Today. “People say, ‘What advice do you have for people who want to be writers?’ I say, they don’t really need advice, they know they want to be writers, and they’re gonna do it. Those people who know that they really want to do this and are cut out for it, they know it.”— R.L. Stine Kudos to columnists and the newspapers that print their columns!

NEW HAVEN, W.Va. — The more things change, the more they stay the same. Senior Maddy VanMatre belted a three-run homer in the home half of the sixth, allowing the Wahama softball team to rally back for an 8-7 victory over visiting Williamstown on Tuesday night in a nonconference matchup in Mason County. The host Lady Falcons (191) picked up their 15th consecutive win and also earned a season sweep against the Lady Jackets, whom the Red and White defeated just six days earlier in Wood County by a 15-1 margin. Outside of the ﬁnal outcome, there weren’t many similarities between the two contests — and that was noticable from the very start. The Maroon and Gold opened up a quick advantage in the top of the ﬁrst as pair of errors resulted in two quick runs, but Wahama answered with two-out Tanner King single that plated Emma Gibbs for a 2-1 deﬁcit after one inning. The Red and White, however, retaliated by responding four consecutive runs over the next three frames while turning a one-run deﬁcit into a 5-2 advantage. Deborah Miller tied the game with a one-out single to left that plated Hannah Billups, then Aleisia Barnitz came home on a double by Hannah Rose that made it 3-2 through two complete. Victoria VanMatre drove in Tanner King in the third for a two-run edge, then Rose scored on a sacriﬁce ﬂy to center in the fourth for a three-run cushion. Williamstown responded in a rather big fashion in the top of the ﬁfth as Hancock belted a grand slam homer over the centerﬁeld fence, turning that three-run deﬁcit into a 6-5 advantage. The score remained that way until the bottom of the sixth See WAHAMA | 7 Eagles top Waterford on road, 18-12 By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com WATERFORD, Ohio — Another offensive outburst. The Eastern baseball team reached double digits for the third straight game and eighth time this season on Tuesday in Washington County, as the Eagles remained perfect with a 18-12 victory over Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host Waterford. Eastern (11-0, 9-0 TVC Hocking) led 1-0 in the top of the ﬁrst inning, as Nate Durst doubled home Blake Newland. The Wildcats took the lead in the bottom of the frame, however, plating three runs on four hits and a walk. The Eagles went ahead 6-3 after a ﬁve-run top of the second, featuring six hits. The hosts got two runs back by the end of the inning, but EHS scored six in the top of the third, capped off by a three-run triple from Conner Ridenour. Eastern’s lead was trimmed to 12-4 in the bottom of the third, but the guests pushed three runs across after four hits in the top of the fourth. Waterford came up with three runs of its own in the bottom of the fourth, but EHS got all-3 back in the top of the ﬁfth and led 18-9. Waterford plated three runs in the bottom of the sixth inning, but fell by an 18-12 count. Colton Reynolds earned the pitching victory in two innings of relief for Eastern, giving up three runs on three hits and four walks, while striking out four. Matthew Blanchard pitched one inning for the Eagles, allowing three runs on four hits and a walk, while striking out two.

The Blue Jackets won 7-3 to sweep the series. Blue Jackets advance after sweep of Lightning COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Columbus Blue Jackets were clinging to a 4-3 lead and the Tampa Bay Lightning’s high-scoring stars were swarming around Sergei Bobrovsky, as the clock ticked down in what would be a history-making playoff game. The Blue Jackets’ goaltender stood tall, as he had the entire playoff series, turning away dangerous shots by Erik Cernak and Cedric Paquette in the last ﬁve minutes. The Lightning pulled their goalie late, and the Blue Jackets opened the scoring spigot on the way to a 7-3 win and shocking four-game sweep of the NHL’s best team. “It’s so much fun to play in this kind of atmosphere,” said Bobrovsky after the Blue Jackets won in front of a raucous home crowd that had been waiting 18 years for the team to win a playoff series. “You feel the energy, you feel that atmosphere, you know? It’s great. It gives you more energy when you win.” Not only did Columbus win a playoff series for the ﬁrst time in ﬁve tries , it did so in dominating fashion. The Blue Jackets ousted a team that had put together one of the most proliﬁc scoring lineups ever, a team whose 68 regular-season wins tied for the most in NHL history. As the seconds ticked off what had turned into a rout because of emptynet goals, the Nationwide Arena crowd that had been standing for the entire third period roared even louder, and the players celebrated wildly, spilling from the bench onto the ice. Winger Cam Atkinson even got a cut on his chin during the joyous melee. “What an experience in that series,” said center Matt Duchene, who was acquired at the trade deadline along with winger Ryan Dzingel from Ottawa for the playoff push. “I have never played in front of a crowd like that. Insane. It’s pretty special what we just did. We’re going to enjoy it, but we’ve got to carry this momentum forward now.” Columbus, which didn’t secure an Eastern Division playoff spot until the 81st game, advances to play the winner of the Boston-Toronto series, which the Maple Leafs lead 2-1. Twelve Blue Jackets scored in the series, but Bobrovsky, who had struggled in three previous playoff series with Columbus, was the star . He will be an unrestricted free agent after the season and has, so far, refused to re-sign with the team. He also has come under criticism at times from coach John Tortorella through an erratic season, but the former Vezina Trophy winner never withered. “He’s not crazy how I’ve talked about some of the situations he’s gone through, but it’s my job to hold people accountable,” Tortorella said. “I’m thrilled that he’s answering.” Columbus neutralized Lightning stars Nikita Kucherov and Steven Stamkos with a smothering fore check that clogged scoring lanes and often turned into opportunities at the other end . When those two ﬁnally got on the scoresheet Tuesday, it was too late. Nineteen-year-old Alexandre Texier, who was playing in the Finnish league last month, opened the scoring Tues- day with his ﬁrst NHL goal , then added one of the empty-netters. The Blue Jackets fell behind 3-0 in the ﬁrst period of the opening game in Tampa, but rebounded to win that one 4-3. A 5-1 rout followed in Tampa, and then a 3-1 win in Columbus on Sunday night set up the sweep. “I’m happy for them because they played as a team, and they had a tremendous amount of will,” Tortorella said. “That’s mental, That’s not a talent, that’s not physical skills, that’s mental toughness. And that’s what I’m thrilled about.” The Lightning were the highest-scoring team in the league by 20 goals this year and ﬁnished with 30 more than the Blue Jackets, who as the eighth seed were given little chance of winning the opening round. “In the end, we just couldn’t ﬁnd our game,” Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said. “That was it. It had been with us all year, and for six days in April we couldn’t ﬁnd it. And it’s unfortunate because it puts a bluntness on what was one hell of a regular season.” �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Big Blacks outlast Poca, 5-4 Lady Wildcats claw past Eastern, 5-2 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — A long climb to the top. The Point Pleasant baseball team forced extra innings with a run in the seventh, then a Joel Beattie single capped a three-run bottom of the ninth in walk-off fashion Tuesday night during a 5-4 victory over visiting Poca in a non-conference matchup in Mason County. The host Big Blacks (13-5) never led in regulation and took their only lead of the game in the ninth as Beattie broke a four-all tie with a two-out bases-loaded single to left that plated Wyatt Wilson with the game-winning run. The Dots had broken a two-all tie in their half of the ninth as Cottrill doubled home Cook, then Cottrill scored on a single by McNeely that resulted in a 4-2 cushion. Kyelar Morrow, Tanner Mitchell and Wyatt Wilson started the home half of the ninth with three consecutive walks, then Miles Williams delivered a one-out single to center that allowed Morrow to come home for a 4-3 deﬁcit. After an inﬁeld pop- By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com WATERFORD, Ohio — Not the start to the week the Lady Eagles needed. The Eastern softball team — which is set to visit Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division leader Wahama on Thursday — won’t be playing for a share of the top spot in the league anymore, as the Lady Eagles dropped a 5-2 decision at Waterford on Tuesday. Eastern (8-4, 8-2 TVC Hocking) started the night off right, as Mollie Maxon blasted a solo home run with two outs in the ﬁrst inning. The Lady Eagles stranded two runners in scoring position in the following inning, however, and Waterford tied the game at one in the bottom of the second. EHS stranded a runner on second in base in each the third and fourth innings, but the Lady Wildcats were next to score, plating four runs on four hits and a walk in the bottom of the ﬁfth. Eastern attempted a two-out rally in the top of the seventh, with Kelsey Roberts singling home Kennadi Rockhold, but the Lady Wildcats got the groundout the needed to seal the 5-2 victory. Tessa Rockhold suffered the pitching loss in a complete game, giving up ﬁve earned runs on 12 hits and two walks, while striking out one. Smitly claimed the win in a complete game for the hosts, striking out three and surrendering two earned runs on 10 hits and a walk. Leading EHS at the plate, Mollie Maxon and Kennadi Rockhold were both 3-for-3 with a run, with Maxon earning a home run and an RBI, and Rockhold claiming a double. Roberts was 2-for-4 with an RBI, while Ally Barber went 2-for-3 with a double in the setback. James paced the WHS offense, going 3-for-3 with two runs and two RBIs. Soprano tripled once, doubled once and drove in two runs for the hosts, Taylor doubled once, singled once and scored once, while Neader singled twice and scored once. Eastern had one error and nine runners left on base in the loss, while Waterford had an error and ﬁve runners stranded. The season series between EHS and WHS is a split, as Eastern topped the Lady Wildcats by a 6-3 count on March 29 in Tuppers Plains. From page 6 as Miller led things off with a single, followed by a single by Gibbs that put runners at ﬁrst and second with one away. Maddy VanMatre belted an 0-2 offering over the centerﬁeld fence and ultimately gave the hosts a permanent advantage at 8-6. Hancock started the seventh with a single and made it over to third on a ﬁelder’s choice that put Graham on the other corner with one away. The Lady Jackets executed a double steal to perfection as Hancock scored to make it an 8-7 contest. Wahama followed with a strikeout and groundout to wrap up the one-run triumph. The Lady Falcons outhit the guests by a 16-7 overall margin and also committed ﬁve of the six errors in the contest. The hosts stranded seven runners on base, while Williamstown left six on the bags. Rose was the winning pitcher of record after allowing four earned runs, seven hits and three walks over seven innings while striking out seven. Graham took the loss after surrendering three earned runs and six hits over two frames while fanning two. King led Wahama with three hits, followed by Rose, Gibbs, Billups, Miller and Lauren Noble with two safeties apiece. Maddy VanMatre, Emily VanMatre and Victoria VanMatre also added a hit each for the victors. Hancock paced Williamstown with three hits and ﬁve RBIs, while Hooper, Schreckengost, Graham and Johnson also added a hit each. Wahama returns to action Thursday when it hosts Eastern in a TVC Hocking contest at 5 p.m. Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2101. The score remained that way until the top of the ﬁfth as the Dots got a sacriﬁce ﬂy to center from McNeely, allowing Payne to come home for a 2-1 advantage. Poca outhit the hosts by a slim 9-8 overall margin and also committed three of the seven errors in the game. The Dots stranded a dozen runners on base, while the Big Blacks left only half as many on the bags. Carter Smith was the winning pitcher of record after allowing two earned runs and ﬁve hits over three innings of relief while striking out ﬁve. McNeely took the loss after surrendering three earned runs and three walks in the eighth without recording an out. Beattie led the hosts with three hits, with Williams, Jeffers, Blain, Morrow and Wilson also adding a safety apiece. Payne, Cook and McNeely paced the guests with two hits apiece, followed by Payne, Miller and Cottrill with a safety each. McNeely led PHS with a game-high two RBIs. Point Pleasant — which is now 7-1 in home contests — returns to action Thursday when it hosts Wayne in a non-conference matchup at 7 p.m. Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2101. Who gets control could shape how the sports betting industry develops in Ohio. But that’s just one of the many details to be sorted out by lawmakers this year. Here’s a look at both proposals — one from each legislative branch — and what’s ahead: House plan The proposal introduced last week calls for allowing sports betting in casinos and racinos, the seven horse tracks in Ohio that also have video slot machines. It also would permit in-person wagers at veterans and fraternal organizations. While it doesn’t directly address mobile and online gaming, the legislation is written to allow for that once federal courts decide on the issue. The Ohio Lottery Commission would be in charge and a 10% tax on wagers would go toward school spending and a fund for gambling addiction. Backers think including the lottery commission gives their proposal a distinct advantage because THURSDAY EVENING BROADCAST 3 (WSAZ) 4 (WTAP) 6 (WSYX) 7 (WOUB) 8 (WCHS) 10 (WBNS) 11 (WVAH) 12 (WVPB) 13 (WOWK) CABLE 6 PM 6:30 WSAZ News 3 (N) WTAP News (N) ABC 6 News at 6pm (N) Arthur NBC Nightly News (N) NBC Nightly News (N) ABC World News (N) Newswatch 6 PM 6:30 THURSDAY, APRIL 18 7 PM 7:30 Wheel of Jeopardy!

Poca opened the game by scoring an unconventional run as Miller reached after being hit by a pitch, then stole second and used a pair of errors to get home for an early 1-0 edge. PPHS rallied to tie things in the second as Hunter Blain scored on a wild pitch with one out, tying the contest at one through two frames. TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — While questions remain about whether sports betting can be legalized in Ohio without a statewide vote, competing proposals in the Legislature would do just that. Both spell out how wagers would be taxed, where betting could take place and fees for operators. One big difference is who would oversee all of it. One of the proposals would put it in the hands of the state commission that oversees casinos while the other would place the lottery commission in charge. 29 (FREE) Eagles Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Point Pleasant sophomore Kyelar Morrow releases a throw to first after slipping while fielding a bunt attempt during Tuesday night’s game against Poca in Point Pleasant, W.Va.
